Abstract of: Experimental Investigation of Mortar Mechanical Properties for Glass Brick Masonry
Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings, 2018 The main advantage of solid bricks over hollow blocks is substantially higher compressive strength. On the other hand, solid bricks have much higher thermal conductivity, which would lead to major heat loss when used for exterior walls.

Recycling Crushed Waste Beer Bottle Glass in Fired Clay Bricks [PDF]
Buildings, 2021 Waste glass is a readily available domestic material. Each year, around 257,000 tonnes of glass waste are produced in Victoria, and the majority is glass packings. Typically, mixed waste glass cullet is deposited in landfills due to the limited recycling techniques. As a result, landfills are facing a growing issue.
